Golden Fishing Village

Chapter 510 Going to the Ghost City

The morning market in Haishi is equivalent to the ghost market in Beishi.

It just sells some antiques and jewelry from the period of the Republic of China, some of which are real and some of them are fake.

It depends on your luck and vision, whether you can find good goods.

If you find good products, you will really make a lot of money, but if you can’t find them, you will lose money.

After breakfast, Qin Wen checked the time. Peng Ruyi hadn't woken up yet, so he was bored to go shopping in the morning market.

Facing the rising sun along the way and breathing the fresh air, Qin Wen walked to the Yellow River Park in 10 minutes.

This park has a history of several decades. Although it is very broken, it is full of humanistic and artistic atmosphere.

Moreover, the park is surrounded by architectural museums and art museums, and many artists often come to hold public welfare exhibitions in the park.

Proceeds from some of the crafts and paintings on display will be donated to charity.

So don't look at the old park, there are a lot of tourists here every day, and the flow of people is very large.

"Hey, this place is bustling with people, it's really lively."

When Qin Wen entered the park, he saw countless people on the streets and alleys.

And under the shade of trees in the park, there are all stalls sitting on the ground.

There are all kinds of antique toys in front of the stalls, some are vases, some are copper coins, and some are wine cups. In short, it looks like one word, old!

Other stalls also sell toys that were common in childhood, such as game consoles that are now out of print, jumping frogs that I used to play when I was a child, and newly released smartphones.

Or the cards in the anime, collecting all these cards can be exchanged for prizes and so on.

In short, when you come here, you can be brought back to the past at once, just like time travel.

Looking at the booths on both sides, Qin Wen felt dazzled and in a good mood.

Speaking of which, this is the first time he has gone shopping in such a leisurely way, and this is serious shopping.

"Come and see, handsome guy. I have some really good stuff here. Do you want to buy them for play or for collection?"

Qin Wen just took two steps when he was stopped by a 27-year-old man.

The man looks very individual, just like Fatty Wang in Tomb Raider Notes.

He speaks fluent Mandarin, and his actions and language are very playful, as well as his big face and unshaven chin, which makes people not annoying at first glance.

Qin Wen squatted in front of his booth, "I'll just take a look."

This booth is filled with gadgets like finger pullers, wine cups engraved with dragon patterns, or plates with oil paint and ink.

It's just that these things are dirty, with a layer of red soil on them, giving people a feeling of being dug out from the deep ground.

When the man saw Qin Wen's immature face and fluttering eyes, a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes.

"It's the first time the handsome guy sees you."

Qin Wen nodded.

The man smiled, passed the cigarette directly, and gave him a small stool from the side.

"Sit down first. Anyway, there is no business this early in the morning. Since you are here for the first time, Brother Wang, I will chat with you."

Coincidentally, this fat man was also surnamed Wang, so Qin Wen really felt that he was more like the fat man in the book.

Without refusing, he took the bench and sat in front of the booth.

Fatty Wang started, first talking about the rules of the antique industry.

For example, do basic things, don't pick up objects directly, only dare to pick up objects after putting them on the ground.

This is to prevent someone in the middle from messing up. If you don't connect it firmly or he doesn't hold it firmly, it will really break and break, and this thing will not be clear.

Also, don't ask the price if you don't sell it. Asking the price means buying intentionally, and counter-offering means bidding.

Qin Wen, who was listening carefully, nodded his head. Coupled with Fatty Wang's expression and tone, he listened with gusto.

"Brother Wang, you've been in this business for a long time."

After hearing what he said, Qin Wen asked with a smile.

Fatty Wang sighed, "Yes, to tell you the truth, my ancestors did this job, and it has been passed down to my generation. It's a pity that I don't live up to it, and now it's getting harder and harder to do it."

"I just ate my last meal and didn't finish my next meal. I live a day-to-day life."

Fatty Wang said helplessly, Qin Wen didn't answer, but a gleam flashed in his eyes.

After this year, he will go to Wenshi to open a store. The four stores will open together, and there will be an urgent need for manpower.

Qin Wen looked down at the things in front of him, and one of the oval stones caught his attention.

It was a dzi bead, Cui Xu had studied it for a while when he was in school.

Afterwards, this guy saved money for a whole year, and bought a dzi bead from a channel he learned about on the Internet, thinking of giving it to Qiu Shuang. It is said that it has a good meaning and can ward off evil spirits.

Who knew it hadn't been sent out yet, and when he got it, he took Qin Wen to the antique collection store, got someone to appraise it, and produced it voluntarily.

It's scary that Cui Xu is sad, but people also said that the real dzi beads can be used as currency and can be used to buy a house. He bought it for 5000 yuan, so what is it worth?

But after all, he was not willing to throw away the 5000 yuan, so he kept it around his neck.

He didn't take it out very often, but he waved his hand and put it in hastily if he recognized it.

Thinking of Cui Xu's embarrassment at that time, Qin Wen found it funny.

"This is the dzi bead."

Qin Wen picked up the oval-shaped stone with black and white patterns. The patterns on it were irregular triangles and four-pointed stars, and the center was in the shape of an eyeball.

Fatty Wang nodded and said casually.

"Well, it's a dzi bead, but it's an imitation, one-to-one exact imitation, take it out to ensure that no one will suspect it's fake."

"After all, there are not many people who understand this stuff."

Hearing what he said, Qin Wen couldn't help but smile knowingly.

He took the stone in front of him in his hand and began to observe it carefully. He had heard Cui Xu say twice before that this thing was first polished from conch fossils.

Later, due to the scarcity of fossils, the ancient XZ people began to use a sedimentary rock containing jade and agate to polish dzi beads. This sedimentary rock has a very strong magnetic field and naturally formed regular patterns.

Mainly eyeballs, supplemented by triangles, quadrilaterals, etc., which are said to ward off evil spirits.

"Why, does the handsome guy want it?"

When Fatty Wang saw Qin Wen watching so seriously, he raised his eyebrows and asked.

But after he asked, he felt a little regretful. This guy was dressed in ordinary clothes, without even a name tag.

At first glance, he is not a rich owner.

Qin Wen didn't answer his words, but took out a cigarette from his pocket and handed it over, "Brother Wang, popularize this dzi bead for me, I'm still curious."

Qin Wen said with a smile, for some reason, he just wanted to listen to Fatty Wang, as if he was listening to a story.

And this guy's tone of voice is so funny, maybe it's because of the legendary aura fit, or because of his eyesight.

Fatty Wang saw that he looked eager for talents, so he took the cigarette unambiguously and put it in his mouth.

"Okay, anyway, I'm bored by myself, so I'm just telling you."
